Jen Hart
Hey Friends! Jen Hart here – I’m a User Experience Designer by day for a local logistics company, and by night I’m in the studio creating mixed media art. I started painting 20 years ago when I was looking for an outlet to process some childhood trauma, and I’ve been painting since. The “Her Journey” series is related to my personal journey through breast cancer, leaving an abusive marriage, and learning to love myself again. My hope is that my art makes you slow down and take a moment to really soak in every texture, every line, every color choice, and hopefully you find yourself feeling SOMETHING!
